Subject: 80's tv show name???

Written By: z4gal on 07/27/06 at 7:26 am

There was this tv show in the 80's, but I am sure it statred in the 70's.
The premise was set in a castle, it was a skit kind of show. It had this librarian who read stories ( I think they rhymed), then a hunchback guy, also a vampire, Frankenstein and his professor. It was quite funny.

Was this a cartoon? Because if so, I seem to remember it.
They rode around on a motorcycle, and lived in the typical spooky mansion atop the dark hill?

Only if you feel so inclined.

I remember so many shows and cartoons from my childhood, I'd probably flood the website with them, and have to go the way of Donnie Dorko.

Just post one a week and don't endlessly analyse the meaning of each show and you'll be fine!

Sorry...I was not a big Star Trek fan.
I did like some characters and actors/actresses, but as many who are acquainted with me know,
my devotion lies with the longest-running sci-fi show out there:

DOCTOR WHO
